Thanks, but please have a read of the bug reporting guidelines before
reporting bugs (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs - a link is
provided on the submission form). In particular, using Apport to report
Firefox bugs is mandatory. Also, it requests that you try it in another
browser, which would have shown that this issue also occurs in Chrome
(which means that it's most likely not a Firefox bug)

Title:
Some Display Blocks are corrupted in Google Satellite Maps
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Linux Mint 13 is based on Ubuntu 12.04.
Esteemed Ubuntu/Linux Mint Developers and Gurus:
=========================================
LM13 Mate 32 bit LiveDVD running from LOCKED SD card (NO HARD DRIVE)
Browser: Firefox 12.0 for Linux Mint (mint - 1.0)
I'm having some subtle display problems with the new Mint 13 (Mate 32
bit) LiveDVD (Read-Only) system I am trying to use. Note that these
problems do NOT occur in Mint 8 or Mint 10 (both Gnome 32 bit), which
are the only other Mint systems that I use.
My System:
=================
HP/(Compaq) dx2400
Intel Core 2 Duo
2 GB memory
Graphics
Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100
Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Refresh: 60 Hz
Normal Widescreen
Memory with Google Maps running approx 3/4 screen, with corrupted blocks:

I have noticed the intermittent problem repeatedly in Google Satellite Maps,
which I use extremely often. I believe that Google Maps writes windows of
'picture blocks' of underlying satellite pictures, and overlay picture blocks
of map labels. Frequently, one or a few blocks are corrupted(?) or
scrambled(?). Once a block is corrupted it tends to stay corrupted even if I
drag it out of view of the window and then drag it back in; or if I change the
resolution up or down and then change it back to the previous setting.
Occasionally the corrupted block gets 'repaired', but I can't seem to do that
consistently, and occasionally MORE blocks get corrupted. I have had as many
as 4 blocks get corrupted, with three of them adjacent blocks and 1
non-adjacent. I have noticed the problem in BOTH layers, but most often in the
satellite pictures layer. I have attached screen dumps showing good images and
corrupted images in both layers.
I have not tested this anomaly in any other applications ... as I
said, I am deciding whether or not to use Mint 13, and as much as I
like some of the new features of 13, this problem is a deal-breaker.
Thank you for any and all comments, suggestions, and assistance.
Blessings in abundance, all the best, & ENJOY!
